Reviewing a contract governed by Thai law
In short
Contract review under the Civil and Commercial Code focuses on enforceability, not style: capacity of the parties, formality requirements for the contract type, governing law and jurisdiction clauses, termination, and whether the Thai text or the English text prevails.
Bilingual contracts are common and are where most disputes start. If the parties do not state which language version prevails, the drafting difference becomes an evidentiary problem. We flag divergence between the versions clause by clause rather than only reviewing one language.
Some contract types carry formality or registration requirements — leases over three years, certain security interests, and transactions registered with a government office. Missing the formality can make the clause unenforceable regardless of what the parties agreed.
What we need from you
- The draft in every language version in circulation
- Names and registration details of the parties
- The commercial outcome you need protected
- Any deadline set by the counterparty
Watch out
Signing a bilingual contract with no prevailing-language clause. Fix that clause before anything else. Scope, turnaround and fees are confirmed by IVC staff by phone, LINE or email — this site does not publish prices.
